"This is an epic modern Scottish classic. Gray is a renowned artist as well as author and here he paints a dystopian Glasgow that is mesmerizing and terrifying in equal measures."

This is a very under rated film that has clamed cult status. This might not before everyone. A dystopian cyberpunk world where savaging for old battle bots is a way of life

"“Cloud Atlas,” combines dystopian sci-fi, spy novel, seafaring tales and more in a good puzzle structure. I especially love the outrageous young wannabe composer and the creepy futuristic use of “soap.”"

The world and its main character, Katniss (0 more)
Great dystopian world
I read this book some years ago, but it's one of those that kind of sticks with you. Especially in the crazy, chaotic world that we live in now, since around November 2016. This is the beginning of a dystopian trilogy that spawned a 4 part movie saga starring Jennifer Lawrence. If you haven't seen the movies, you should. They are pretty great and so are the books.

This book will make you question everything you thought you knew about superheroes. It reminded me of the Count of Monte Cristo-if Dumas had written that about a teenager in a dystopian future.

Very interesting. A bit more difficult to follow than many of the dystopian novels I've read. An interesting look at how one version of utopia works for a long time, but not for all.

"A dystopian novel about women too old to become pregnant, only valuable for a Second Reserve Bank Unit for biological material. Scary and thoughtful, of course, and beautifully written by an enviably talented writer."

I’m chilled by the sensational dystopian sci-fi thriller Snowpiercer (2013), now streaming (finally) on Netflix UK
While it works well as a dystopian action thriller, it’s a much more complex and layered film than it may appear at first glance. There are moments of comedy (both light and pitch black), subversion, searing social commentary and shocking violence and although the film isn’t afraid to wear its bleak, nihilistic heart on its sleeve, it does so without alienating or disengaging the viewer....
